Write two practice paragraphs (either an introduction, a main body, or a conclusion) for the following prompt:
People seek fame because they want to make money
Remember:
Introduction
- Establish your topic.
- Present the main points-of-view by briefly stating what they are and why that position is held.
- Introduce a ‘hook’ or ‘attention grabber’.
- Set up a question/issue you think the topic naturally raises and make it clear that this what your essay aims to explore.
Main Body (compare/contrast)
- Think of an issue you will explore
- Choose two examples of people becoming (or trying to become) famous
- List similarities and difference
- Choose connective words that show similarities or difference
- Write paragraph (provide enough background on each show to make it clear you know what it is about)
Conclusion
- In a subtle way, state the most reasonable conclusion based on the ideas presented.
- Identity a dilemma you have come across but reinforce the primary finding of your exposition.
- Give one general reason why the conclusion you have stated is valid; include any important detail you have identified that will make the dilemma less of a dilemma in the future.
